a good deal, if the bike is in good order. I'd find the money. The tubing sounds like columbus gilco, which would, I think, make this a master or a master light, maybe? Make sure that the fork is a colnago...

Just my 2 cents. I just sold a Master Extra light frame (no fork or anything else) that had a dent on the toptube and two on one chain stay for $265. If it's a complete Master Extra Light I would buy it in a second for 500. But that's me. Colnagos seem to sell for a lot no matter what condition there in and 500 for something with Gilco tubing(if that's what this bike is) is a bargain.
